Description Not Available
Goat flocks are mostly kept by marginal farmers who are
unable to afford supplementary feeding with costly
concentrate mixture. Simultaneously, the grazing/browsing
areas are progressively shrinking with the encroachment by
ever growing humag populatIon necessItating to evolve
cheaper feed mixtures for higher and sustained animal
production (Mathur 1996). In this experiment efforts are made
to reduce the cost of sUpple111cntary feeding of goats by the
introduction of a non-conventional tumba (Citrullus
colocynthis) seed-cake (TSC) a low cost (Rs 2/kg) feed
supplement. The objective of the study is to enhance goat
production with low cost feeding inputs, affordable by
marginal and landless farmers.
